Solutions for water efficiency focus on reducing both the amount of potable and non-potable water used in buildings. A crucial part of deploying water efficiency relies on the influence tenants can have in water efficiency through behavioural changes and also by implementing innovative water efficient products.

Why Water Efficiency?

With increasingly stringent building regulations and new minimum water efficiency requirements, it is necessary to look closer at different levels of improvement to the water performance of buildings, among them water-saving devices, water-efficient construction, design and renovations, and measuring buildings’ water performance.

Sustainable water-use policies have been slow to evolve both within the EU, and globally. Water demand has generally been managed through water pricing. For instance, the EU Water Framework Directive requires EU Member States to charge end-users for water services with a negative impact on the environment, such as pumping and supply systems.

How does Water Efficiency benefit you?

Water efficiency is one of the few methods that can positively address both climate change mitigation and adaptation.

Water efficiency can help companies meet their organisational climate targets and governmental water targets whilst reducing pressure on existing infrastructure needs. It can help reduce water and energy bills for households and businesses alike and offers expert opportunities for business innovation.

Additionally, efficient water solutions make a big contribution to scores received for green building certification schemes such as LEED and BREEAM.
